Scott’s Thoughts: Stepping Out In Style

Stepping Out In Style

>> Saturday, April 5, 2008

The kids went to their Cotillion's Spring Ball last night, and that meant getting all gussied up. I still remember when each of them was so tiny, nestled in our arms. My, how they're growing up so quickly!

Kim April 6, 2008 at 3:36 PM: Very funny, John.

I told Beth how beautiful she looked because I saw her picture on her dad's blog and she was mortified. She said she hates when her dad puts her picture on his blog. "He never asks us if he can do it. He just does." I told her at least they are flattering pictures.

They are beautiful, but I have to agree with John. lol
Angela April 7, 2008 at 7:32 PM: Wow..they have grown up so fast in the time you have left AZ. So do you have your list of questions, when the girls want to start dating? Just the presence of my Dad made guys shake in their boots.
John Kuvakas April 8, 2008 at 9:59 AM: I never asked any questions. I would juts sit there....silent....cleaning
my gun :o)

"Real theological thinking, which is thinking with the mind of Christ, is hard to find in the practice of ministry. Without solid theological reflection, future leaders will be little more than pseudo-psychologists, pseudo-sociologists, pseudo-social workers. They will think of themselves as enablers, facilitators, role models, father or mother figures, big brothers or big sisters, and so on, and thus join the countless men and women who make a living by trying to help their fellow human beings to cope with the stresses and strains of everyday living.

"But that has little to do with Christian leadership because the Christian leader thinks, speaks, and acts in the name of Jesus, who came to free humanity from the power of death and open the way to eternal life. To be such a leader it is essential to be able to discern from moment to moment how God acts in human history and how personal, communal, national, and international events that occur during our lives can make us more and more sensitive to the ways in which we are led to the cross and through the cross to the resurrection."

(Henri J. M. Nouwen, In the Name of Jesus: Reflections on Christian Leadership (New York: Crossroad, 1998) pp. 65-67
